Life & reinsurance underwriting and claims leader driving portfolio profitability.
What I'm looking for
I’m a life insurance and reinsurance executive with 15+ years leading underwriting, claims, treaty management, and risk functions across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Burundi. My edge is deep technical grounding in group and individual life underwriting, reinsurance treaty structuring and retrocession, and claims governance—supported by an actuarial science foundation (ACII, BSc Actuarial Science).
Currently, I’m a Manager, Life Business at Kenya Reinsurance Corporation, where I drive portfolio profitability, pricing strategy, and regional market expansion. I manage life reinsurance underwriting, treaty, and retrocession functions across regional cedants, and I oversee claims management, operational efficiency initiatives, and regulatory compliance engagement with the Insurance Regulatory Authority (IRA) of Kenya.
Before this, I led end-to-end claims management and reinsurance accountability as Head of Claims & Reinsurance (Corporate & Retail Life) at Jubilee Life Insurance Company, and I previously served as Senior Manager – Corporate Life and Operations Manager – Corporate Life. Earlier roles across underwriting assistance and life/pension administration strengthened my hands-on underwriting and data discipline, including broker and client relationship management, scheme costing and reconciliation, and risk management representation in regulatory liaison and tender management.
